think for yourself

thinking for yourself is a skill anyone can develop this skill with practice and effort, i am not talking about thinking about yourself.

learn the principle then think for yourself

build your own judgement don't rely on anyone, i know ignorance is hell because it create uncertainty, mark my words whenever you feel uncertainty that means you are aware of your ignorance. knowing your ignorance is more important than showing your intelligence. know your ignorance then act on it to improve improve your intellectual horizon. remember, not knowing is not bad thing it does not mean you are dumb, it means you aware of your own ignorance. whenever you feel you are smarter than others, think again deeply then you realise you are not smarter than others you are just aware of your ignorance more than others and also you act on it to improve your intellectual horizon. understand things, don't memorize for sounding smart. it is easier to be a walking wikipedia it just require lot of reading but thinking for yourself is different.

note : i write for learning, not for teaching
